Aren't metatdata, page numbers and percentages logged by Amazon and Apple as well? If not, then how does your iPad or Kindle library get synchronized across devices and where does that information get saved?
This is a red herring -- Amazon only logs your Amazon purchases. Even if I sideload a book and open it on the Kindle, there is ZERO reason to think Amazon has been made aware of its existence.

We can tell, because in fact your library ISN'T synced. Your PURCHASES are.

(You can also explicitly email Amazon your book and have them add it to your Kindle Cloud, with the option selected on MYK to save it and sync annotations data. In other words, YOU asked THEM.)
